Any Nascar fans out there?
Has anyone ever bought tickets to go to a race? If so, please let me know about how to go about getting them. TIA

We use to always go to Daytona, but my friend's father was a pit insider. The races are so much fun, I really hope Staten Island gets NASCAR

Re: Any Nascar fans out there?
I used to be a huge Nascar fan. I have been to several races. I think you can call the racetrack that you want to go to for tickets. Its so much fun.

That would be great. I want to surprise DH with tickets for our anniversary. So I have to figure out where the 'good' races are!

Pocono *****.. because you can't see the whole track.
Darlington, SC is fun
Charlotte, NC is fun
Dover, DE is fun.
I've been to all.

I have nothing to compare them too, but it was so exciting. I love Daytona anyway, nice beach and inexpensive hotel rooms.
I would think Indianapolis as well is great

Re: Any Nascar fans out there?
I've been to Dover a few times. I got a package deal through Hampton Jitney. They have a few pick up spots on the Island, or a "meet us there" package. I went to Pocono once and got my tickets right from the tracks website. I didn't really like Pocono that much. I'm going back to Dover on the 25th.

Re: Any Nascar fans out there?
I posted on your other post on LIW.
BUT, if you are looking for a race to reccomend, let me know the time frame you are looking at. DH has a breakdown of all the good tracks to watch a race & what not. some are awful - def Poconos is no good. Dover is ok, especially if you want to stay local. Talledega is great, but ya gotta travel for that one - so is Bristol, but same deal.

You also need to buy tickets for both races at the same time// I believe at Talledega or Bristol.. (I forgot which one) so that's a PITA
I would go with Dover, Charlotte or Darlington.
Those are the three best tracks and closest and easiest travel from LI.

Re: Any Nascar fans out there?
Make sure you get seats that are higher up. I made that mistake the first time I bought tickets to a race. I ended up in the lower section and couldn't see any of the track and came home pretty dirty!

True enough.
IN response to another post.....I went to Daytona with DH & loved it. We went for the Busch race on Sat & the Nextel Cup race on Sunday. I thought I would get fidgety or bored, but it was very exciting. I got the Trackpass headphones, which not only block out the noise (yes the noise it unbearable) but you can listen to the radio broadcast OR the pit crew headsets of any driver. They were great.
Def a good gift for anyone who's a fan.
